Application Tips

Bank of America Application Tips


  • 3/12 or 7/12 Rule: You won't be approved if you have opened 3 or more accounts, with any bank, in the past 12 months. For those with Bank of America deposit accounts, the rule changes to 7+ accounts.
  • 2/3/4 Rule: Max 2 consumer cards per rolling 2 months, 3 per rolling 12 months, and 4 per rolling 24 months.
  • 5 card limit: You will not get approved for a new consumer card if you already have 5 consumer Bank of America cards open
  • Get Same Card Again: With some Bank of America cards, must wait 24 months after either opening or cancelling, depending upon the card.
  • Hard inquiries are usually combined into 1 when initiated within 30 days but there have been reports of TransUnion not combining.

It looks like this offer is dead and/or BoA is no longer offering the card at all.

Thanks for the heads up. We can’t find a link to it either, so we’ve reached out to a rep to find out more details.

Not that this is a particularly hot commodity, but if you *are* in the market for it I’d recommend starting a booking to see if you get a better offer–I see an “online offer” for a $100 statement credit after 1k in 90 days (plus the usual up to 95k bonus points) when choosing rooms on their website for a potential booking.
